Good and Bad; Psalms 51:10
The people that we have in our lives can also be seen as Wild Honey or Locusts. This might be a little harder to distinguish. The easy one is the Wild Honeys, they are good for us, lift us up, keep us on track. We need these people to help keep us pure. When you get enough of them together, working steadily, they create a home for the sweet wild honey that tastes wonderfully perfect and pure. But, the Locusts are a different story. The simple thing to do is say we need to rid them from our lives, but is that right? I have several people on my facebook page and other people I know that are not good for me. However, I keep them around because it is our duty to bring Christ's love to everyone we meet. If we truely love Christ, we are going to find a way to share His words, as hard as it may be. I have found that you never know who is a Christian, Athiest (finding more and more I didn't realize) or simply someone who needs just a lift when you are able to incoorperate your life's goals into conversation. My life's goal is to please God and thru Christ get to heaven. Can't say that I have perfected that quite yet, or ever will for that matter, but since I have been putting forth an effort by studying and praying for God's help, it has become much easier. Words come out of my mouth easier and I can stand stronger on my own two feet longer during a christian bashing. I beleive it is pleasing to God to see us sharing our faith as these "last days" are growing closer. Christianity is going to become harder and harder as the end comes but with God's help I know it is possible. So, Ill continue to keep the locusts close, you never know when that "click" that they are waiting for will come. A word, testimony, song, story. Could be anything. I certianly know I received one and it has changed my life, I feel like I've made it to the other side of the mountian and am no longer slipping...but pulling. Please don't interprete this as thinking I have a free ride, I have just came to an understanding about purpose and have been able to loosen myself from the grips of the evil one. I came across a scripture and it has become my favorite. Psalms 51:10 Create in me a clean heart: oh God, and renew a right spirit within me. I asked and he gave. I can feel a difference in my soul. Our God is so great, so mighty and so powerful. We can never repay, but should never stop trying. With all my tickets I hand to my tables, I write this verse on the back. I have found it's a great way to get people intersted and curious as to what it says. Some ask, some take it with and some completely ignore. But, at the end of the day I know I have gotten someone thinking and always get a few thanks.
